The cold wave from Siberia came suddenly and caught people off guard. It felt like winter had already arrived. Fortunately, at the last Standing Committee meeting, Xiao Zheng also deployed work on preventing cold, freezing and snow, and the entire county was also prepared. In addition,
Over the past year, the housing problem of poor households has been solved. Cave dwellings that need to be reinforced have been reinforced, dilapidated houses that need to be rebuilt have also been rebuilt, and quilts, stoves and other daily necessities have been provided through the civil affairs department. Therefore, the people of Baoyuan County have begun to survive the winter smoothly.
mode.
In Beihai, Huajing, the lake surface that was sparkling two days ago suddenly turned into ice jelly, and young people and children were skating on it.
In a private pavilion overlooking the Beihai Lake, cook tea around the stove. While the tea soup is gently boiling, looking at the frozen North Sea to the west and the foothills of Jingshan Mountain to the north, peel off a roasted longan and swallow it.
A lukewarm orange petal, Sima Zhongtian smiled and praised: "Old leader, the life your family is living is called life!"
The old leader Cao Gaopeng smiled slightly, poured a bowl of mellow Pu'er for Sima Zhongtian, and said: "You don't know that I have spent decades guarding the border in exchange for enjoying my old age now! It's the same for you. It's hard to live in the frontier today.
A little bit, you can live a life like me in the future!" Sima Zhongtian smiled and said: "Whether I am so lucky or not, there is no telling!" However, Sima Zhongtian thought in his heart that if he just followed
Old leader, if you do this, I can just lie down and do nothing now!
Enjoying his old age is not Sima Zhongtian’s ultimate goal. Sima Zhongtian’s “ideal” is undoubtedly more ambitious. Of course, on this road, Sima Zhongtian still needs to clear obstacles, and the biggest obstacle is the Huajing Xiao family!
However, the old leader Cao Gaopeng said with a smile: "How could you not be so lucky? Zhongtian, from my personal experience, as long as you grasp these two things, you will be able to enjoy the lake and the mountains like me.
, drinking tea, I feel at peace in my heart! The first one is to walk on the right path. As long as we go in the direction pointed out by Hua Jing, we will not go into the dark; the second one,
Don't be greedy. If you don't bring money and things outside your body, you won't be able to take them with you until you die. Your son, Sima Yue, is already the Organization Minister of Jiangzhong. Both father and son are high-ranking officials. Let's put it more vulgarly.
'Guangzong Yaozu' is enough! If you can grasp these two things, I believe that when you return to Huajing from the territory, you will be able to live a life as selfless as I am!"
"Thank you, the old leader, for your teachings!" Sima Zhongtian picked up the teapot and poured tea for Cao Gaopeng. "I will definitely keep the old leader's words in mind!" Cao Gaopeng nodded slightly and said, "Now, people like us, we all
It's satisfying. The only thing is that the days go too fast. After you don't hold the position, the days fly behind you like a train! You can't catch it even if you want to, and your body is not as good as before! I don't know.
One day, this old machine may no longer work!"
"How could that be?" Sima Zhongtian said, "Old leader, your body is precious and must be protected. By the way, this time I specially brought some local specialties from the territory to the old leader and his wife. You and Mrs. Cao can eat it.
A little, it will definitely be good for maintaining the body." After saying that, Sima Zhongtian dialed a number, and his secretary came in from outside and delivered two large boxes of things. Sima Zhongtian said: "Old leader, you have been in the territory for so long,
We must know each other."
Cao Gaopeng looked at it and asked, "Is it Tageyilis?" Sima Zhongtian smiled and nodded: "That's right, let me tell you, the old leader will know it at a glance!" Tageyilis
Si', the old leader made us feel friendly when he called out his name!" In the local language, "Tagayilis" means "snow lotus", which is also known as "Tianshan Snow Lotus"!
Many people have heard the name "Tianshan Snow Lotus", but how many people have tasted the truly wild "Tianshan Snow Lotus"? As long as it is wild, that kind of extremely precious medicinal herb must be found in Boda Peak.
It grows in stone crevices above an altitude of four to five thousand meters, and the locals have to work hard to find one or two!
Cao Gaopeng was not the kind of person whose eyes would light up when he saw rare and exotic objects. He asked: "Is this 'Tagairis' of yours wild or cultivated?" Sima Zhongtian smiled and said: "Old leader
, is cultivated. Nowadays, many people in the Bodafeng Mountain area of the territory are planting it, and it has gradually been industrialized. Although compared with the wild ones in Tianshan Mountain, the effectiveness may be slightly discounted. But when eaten, the effect is still obvious. We
We chose what we think is the best and gave it to the senior leaders to give it a try."
"If you are completely wild, I will definitely not take it!" Cao Gaopeng said, "In the years when I was in the territory, I made it clear that my family and I would not eat 'Tagailis', otherwise the following would
If you are a good person, you will think of ways to give it to you!" Sima Zhongtian said with a smile: "Of course I know this very well. No matter where the old leader goes, he is always upright and upright. Therefore, I am giving this thing to you.
The first is not to get wild ones, and the second is to let the leaders know that now 'Tagairis' has also been industrialized! This will go a long way in improving the lives of the people in the territory!"
"That's good! If you have such a heart, I can't help it even if you don't accept it." Cao Gaopeng said, "Although I live in Huajing now, I still have great feelings for the territory! I also hope that the lives of the people in the territory will be better.
The better it can be!" Sima Zhongtian said, "On behalf of the people of the territory, I also thank the old leader for his concern!" Cao Gaopeng said: "The country's policies towards the territory have been getting better and better in recent years. As long as there is an opportunity in the future, I will also express my gratitude to the old leader for his concern!"
The leadership suggested that multiple measures must be taken to develop the territory better!" Sima Zhongtian nodded and said: "That would be great!"
"By the way, your son Sima Yue is doing well in the river, right?" Cao Gaopeng asked again with concern, "Are there any difficulties or confusions?"
Cao Gaopeng thought to himself that Sima Zhongtian came all the way from the territory to see him and even sent precious medicinal materials such as Tianshan Snow Lotus. He was definitely not just here to reminisce about old times. Sima Zhongtian is now in a high position, and I am afraid he does not need to care about him, but
His son was still on the rise and had a lot of room for development. It was reasonable for Sima Zhongtian to say a few kind words to his son, so Cao Gaopeng asked him in passing.
"Thank you so much for the old leader's concern!" Sima Zhongtian said immediately, "My son Sima Yue has received the old leader's care since he was a child. He does not dare to forget the old leader's previous instructions at work. He is still conscientious and fulfills his duties! Meet him!
Difficulties, he is also good at gaining support from the main leaders of Jiangzhong Province, and at the same time uniting a group of people below to solve the problem! Therefore, there is no big problem at work. However, he has indeed felt some confusion in Jiangzhong recently."
Oh? What kind of confusion is it?" Cao Gaopeng looked at Sima Zhongtian, "Can you tell me about it?"
Sima Zhongtian said: "There is a saying that is widely circulated in Jiangzhong now. Some families can do whatever they want and use the country's resources at will, which is against laws and regulations. If this continues, the impact will be very bad...
After hearing this, the old leader Cao Gaopeng frowned: "Does such a thing really exist?" Sima Zhongtian said: "Yeah, I didn't believe it before, but after watching some videos and pictures that are being circulated in Jiangzhong, I
I have to believe it!”
"Videos and pictures? Show me." After the old leader Cao Gaopeng saw the videos and photos, he looked solemn: "Some people and some families are indeed breaking the rules! The awareness of rules, system and rule of law has weakened.
The trend!”
Hearing that the old leader Cao Gaopeng was critical, Sima Zhongtian immediately felt the hope. He could not help but feel the joy of victory in his heart, but his face was very solemn: "Old leader, what you said is true.
That's right. If one family is destroyed, if it is left unchecked, other families will imitate, and then it will be chaos. This situation is the confusion of my son Sima Yue in Jiangzhong, and may have become the confusion of many people."
Cao Gaopeng nodded and said: "Yes, this situation cannot be ignored. Whoever wants to take the lead should be severely beaten so that he does not dare to show his head again!" The old leader's words were unequivocal!
Xiao Zheng took the time to call Ren Yongle over and said to him: "Yongle, help me send two things." Ren Yongle naturally agreed: "Yes, Secretary Xiao, where do you want to send them?"
Xiao Zheng took out one of the red boxes. Inside was a pair of silver bracelets. They were not expensive, but they were very exquisitely made. They were given to Xiao Zheng by An Ruyi when Xiao Zheng invited An Ruyi to dinner last time.
It belonged to his son Xiao Yuan. At first, Xiao Zheng refused to accept it. He said, "Why did you give us such an expensive bracelet? You know we can't accept it."
An Ruyi smiled and said: "This is something worth several thousand yuan. You said that it is a very valuable thing to us. I'm afraid it is an exaggeration. Moreover, this thing is not for you, but for your treasure."
.Those of us who are doing business outside have a rule. When a friend gives birth to a baby, we have to "serve the soup". I don't have anything good to give, but I know that the silver bracelets in Xiangjiang are very well made, so I let him
Someone helped bring a pair!"
There is no doubt that this is An Ruyi's intention. Xiao Zheng said: "Then, I won't think about it so much. I just accepted these silver bracelets for my little kid." An Ruyi said sweetly.
He smiled and said: "Then I will have face!"
In addition, An Ruyi also gave Xiao Zheng two boxes of stuff, which were cordyceps from Qingtu Province. Xiao Zheng frowned slightly: "What are you doing? This stuff is very expensive." Xiao Zheng has never taken this kind of supplement.
, but seeing that in these two boxes, each branch has a natural shape and clear texture, it must be a very authentic category. However, after Xiao Zheng became a leading cadre, he stayed away from this precious supplement. He said: "
Mr. An, I can’t accept this thing.”
An Ruyi said: "I have a friend who is studying abroad and grows cordyceps in the green soil. I see that you have been working non-stop and busy since you arrived in Baoyuan. You should take some of this to replenish your body!"
